B
BUS transfers are in place between Casement Station, Tralee, and Mallow Station during works being carried out at Minish level crossing.
Due to engineering works at Minish, in conjunction with Kerry County Council, Iarnród Éireann/Irish Rail advises all intending passengers that bus transfers will operate from all stations between Casement Station, Tralee, and Mallow Station (in both directions) from tomorrow, Tuesday, October 10 (8.45am until 7pm), Wednesday, October 11 (8.45am until 3.15pm) and Thursday, October 12 (8.45am until 7pm).
“To avoid delaying trains at Mallow Station, customers should note that bus transfers will depart all stations between Casement Station, Tralee, and Mallow Station – earlier (for example: 8.45am bus transfer departs Casement Station, Tralee for Mallow),” said Iarnród Éireann.
During the engineering work, Iarnród Éireann Irish Rail is also asking mobility impaired customers to contact them in advance of the day of travel, so that arrangements can be put in place.
In addition, customers should note that delays may occur during bus transfers. “Iarnród Éireann Irish Rail would like to thank customers for their patience and understanding during these engineering works – and apologise for any inconvenience, which may occur,” stated Iarnród Éireann.
For further information, customers should log on to www.irishrail.ie or contact the Iarnród Éireann Irish Rail Customer Contact Centre on 1-850-366222.

The Dóchas Drama Group will run a series of short plays at the Muckross Schoolhouse from December 5 to 7.
The group’s annual performance has been switched to the Muckross venue as its traditional base – the ballroom in the Killarney Avenue Hotel is being refurbished.
“If you are fed up with the incessant rain and constant bad news. Do you need a break? Are tired of listening to advice about your Christmas cake recipe? There is a perfect solution,” said the group’s Liz Ryan.
“We will present six short plays and some of the questions you may ask yourself are:
“Why is Jane suddenly so honest?
“What did happen on December 9. Will Tiffany be promoted? Will Mags eventually find love?
“Can lost love be re-kindled? What do grandparents get up to when they’re babysitting?
For answers to these questions and more, come along to Muckross Schoolhouse on December 5, 6 and 7.”
